The answer Louise is that you can. But you can only do this for a limited amount of time

I think it is about an half an hour.

Hope this helps.

can you change the timelimit please? coz i need it all on just 1 page or else ugghhh it wont look good and i have ocd for perfection hahahaha

Sorry Louise the answer to that is going to have to be no.

ooh ok then...ill just make a new post each time copy and paste old one into a new one then delte it

Louise what Tony has said is correct, if I were to increase this time to allow members to change/alter a post indefinitely then we would have all sorts of problems as you can imagine for example if a member has posted something that another member decided to question and the poster realised he/she have made a serious mistake they could then go back and correct it without having to admit they were wrong and making the other member look stupid? and this is only one example, this could also apply to items that are for sale ? ie changing the price as and when they wish but there are others so I think 1 hour is plenty enough time. However I'm not too sure why you will need to continually need to edit a post? can you explain?

Have to agree with both Tony and Ashley on changing the content of a post when someone else has already posted. However, there have been one or two occasions lately when I have wanted to go back and change grammatical errors and so forth. However, I believe it would be impossible to introduce an editing system to differentiate between the two.
